Busy Times

Liam is working very hard on his crawling. He is excellent at crawling backwards. He can do a few paces forward. He is also great at rolling wherever he wants to go. He gets around, that's for sure!



He's focusing very hard....


Almost there!

Kale loves to wake Liam up from his morning nap each morning. He knocks on Liam's door and calls, "Liam, Liam" (which sounds more like e-um, e-um). He then clambers right up the side of Liam's crib and over the top. He lays with him, hugs him, gives him his paci and blankie. 

Look at those baby blues!

Liam has been learning alot lately. He says mama and dada on a regular basis. I will have to admit that he said "dada" first. Shortly after, he started saying "mama." I didn't think he was really talking, just babbling, but when he wants something, he sure can holler out, "mama, mama, mama" pretty loudly. 

This week, Liam also learned to get himself from his tummy/back to sitting. He did it once and now he is completely adept at this skill. I went in one morning to get him from his crib and he was just sitting there looking at me! He is also starting to pull-up. He has wiped out a few times and has a few battle scars to prove it!

In other news, our precious baby gets ear tubes on Monday. After battling with chronic ear infections, like 8 in 5-6 months, we decided to get ahead and do tubes. Say a prayer that everything goes smoothly on Monday. This momma is scared of anesthesia!

In other news, I started teaching at the college this week. I teach on Monday and Wednesday afternoons. I am gone from about 12:30-4 p.m. We found a wonderful nanny who stays with the boys during those times, as well as a few extra hours each week so I can plan and grade papers. It is nice to get out of the house for a few hours each week, yet still get to spend so much quality time with my boys.
